This one brings back memories. If it doesn’t for you, here’s what Wikipedia has to say:
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang: The Magical Car is a children’s book written by Ian Fleming (creator of James Bond) for his son Caspar, with illustrations by John Burningham. It was first published in 1964 by Jonathan Cape in London and Random House in New York, and later made into a successful film. It starred Dick Van Dyke as Caractacus Potts and Sally Ann Howes as Truly Scrumptious. The film was directed by Ken Hughes and produced by Albert R. Broccoli, best known as co-producer of theJames Bond series of films, also based on Fleming’s novels.
